83% SOC last noc

Coming home from a banquet last night it was pretty cold and the heat was on to keep the windows defogged. I was on the highway going 65mph as I approached my exit.

I let off the accelerator just a bit before cresting a hill knowing that the highway descends to an exit that continues to descend. Battery SOC was about 64% as I began regen coasting.

Speed dropped to around 50mph as I entered the exit and began to regen brake as close to 60amps as possible...I was able to maintain that almost all the way to the end of the exit ramp. As I came to a stop at the end of the exit CAN-View showed the SOC at 81%..while I sat waiting for traffic to go past it rose to 83%.

Of course the ICE continued to run...but didn't do the cycle off/on routine. I EV'd about 100 yards to the next stop light as traffic passed and dropped to 81% again. As I accelerated away there was a clear effort to deplete the battery with 40-60 amp drain while accelerating.

It's noteworthy that the OAT was about 37-38 degrees F and that the MG2 Inverter temp peaked around 86 degrees F even after the prolonged braking/regen that got the battery up to 83%. That's the highest SOC I've ever seen my battery get.
